We have no need for them, we have enough room to keep the buildings low.
Caleb Gray
either places are empty so there is no need or it's crowded already so you can't throw them out to build a glass box there
Kayden Carter
Why ruin our cities like that?
Anthony Reyes
I've been to Vienna. There are a lot of skyscrapers there
Chase Baker
Yes (Benidorm)
Michael Harris
We build skyscrapers outside the historical center of the city to avoid ruining it. See the EUR in Rome or La Défense in Paris
Lincoln Perry
They think old good, new bad! This is especially true when it comes to buildings, air conditioning, and automatic transmissions. Euros just like being stuck in the past and wewuzzing.
Cameron White
Subhuman like skyscrapers
Zachary Robinson
Unironically looks like average brazilian city.
Ryan Bennett

Dominic Morales
What's wrong with the euro? It's a relatively new currency
Alexander Howard
Maybe you didn't know but there's chronology in euro notes going from antiquity in 5€ to modern era in 500€.

Why is that video so gay, and why is everything that guy say is so vague ?
Kevin Ross
They do, they just like to pretend they don't.
Owen Reed
Notice how it is in the suburbs and not in the middle of Paris though
Isaac Allen
other cities in Europe don't have populations that you can really compare with giant US cities
cities like NYC have larger populations than entire European countries
Dominic Thompson
We have some but they are usually less than 500ft high.
Jordan Parker
We have some in Paris, but outside of Paris there are inexistent.
Lyon has some
Nantes has 1
Marseille has 2
Lille has 1
Toulouse is expected to have 1

I don't want to be rude, but Benidorm looks rather like Brazil than Miami.
The skyscrapers in Madrid are nice though.

>a lot of skyscrapers
Not really. There's only 3 or 4 buildings over 150m depending on how you measure them.
There's a good amount of 80m+ tall buildings, but those are not skyscrapers by the usual definition (150m+).
Brody Gomez
Most American cities with enough skyscrapers to form a skyline are rather small in population (muh suburbs is horseshit in terms of population density), they're just compensation for small penis size, like in the rest of the 3rd World.

I was in Paris last year and went to visit there during a french holiday, and Christ the streets between those skyscrapers were so deserted, i could've screamed from the top of my lungs and probably nobody would've heard me. Pretty cool imagery though.

Europeans don’t want ugly glass boxes in their historic cities

If that's what a real city feels like then I really don't want sky scrapers.

Building structures higher than our local church? I don't think so.

Hudson Rogers
Why is there a brick chimney by itself in the middle of the water
Cooper Roberts
We do, we just don't put them in the middle of the city, because in Europe center of the city tend to have historical value.
John Bennett
Part of an art installation. There's chimneys just like it in South Korea, Finland and Germany and a few others here in Sweden.

Sky scrapers don't fit in with our other buildings.

Because those buildings get outdated fast.
Give it 50 years and people will be oushing for them to be destroyed again while european old architecture is timeless

Brandon Williams
there's actually a height limit in Rotterdam to prevent tall structures
Jeremiah Flores
Interesting. Benidorm went from a humble fishermen village to a massive tourist attraction full of skyscrapers. More than 50 years after the change, it's still a very successful and sustainable place.
Kevin Bennett
Wow rude, I never implied they were. You wouldn't see something like that in an american city, where skyscrapers are part of the urban center rather than their own little separate district.
Nolan Jenkins
And all of the pic is located in the old centre, so it's hard to build there because of century old remains of the old city in the soil and the proximity of the Laurenskerk.
